The London Spectator does not hog any
Rreat likelihood of England becoming
Catholicized, or that there would be any
great danger to the liberties of the people if
Hhe Hhould. In au article on the subject of
'The Conversion of England" it says:
It is possible, indeed, to imagine that a
spirit of genuine obedience and submission
to Roman authority would accompany or fol
low the triumph of lloinan doctrine. I5ut
such a ' result seems equally improbable,
whether we regard the past or the present.
The past indeed of English ecclosiastical his
tory is not an encouraging study to those
who anticipate in the future a golden ago of
Ultramontane supremacy. In her long strug
gle with tho secular power, Home had advan
tages on her side which it is impossible to
over-estimate: a policy, in essential points
permanent and consistent, administered by
a succession of men selected on account of
their ability, a dynasty which rested some
part at least of its title to tho throne on Papal
grunts, a hierarchy which was to a largo ex
tent foreign and cosmopolitan, when to bo
cosmopolitan was to lie Koman, and hundre d
of wealthy and powerful monastic communi
ties sciitu'rcd over the country, each of which
was an outpost of the Papacy; yet all thesa
influences failed to secure a victory. Tho
Lome quarrels between spiritual and secular
powers might from time to time give prepon
derance to a third power which win always on
the watch for such opportunities; tho reign of
a weak prince might coincide with that of a
vigorous pontiff; but, on the whole, tho for
tune of the contest was adverse to Homo.
And the time when the Papal influence was
jia.st regularly exexcised, w hen what may bo
railed a Concordat was in force, ami tho
Pope was habitually represented by a
l.gatc tho period, that is, that pro
ceded the Information was in fact
preparing the, way for the most tremendous
blow that llomau supremacy ever received.
It may be said with perfect truth that tho
Pope does now in some respects exercise a
more undisturbed power in England than ho
did during the reign of a prince of average
vigor in the pre-Ket'ormation d.iys. lie may
publish his bulls, for instance, without any
nort of hindrance, in any way that ho pleases.
In old times it was not at all an uncommon
thing that they should be refused admittance
to the kingdom, lie has. again, tho absolute
appointment to ecclesiastical dignities. The
right to appoint he has always claimed; but
tho Crown, and the clergy, as represented by
the chapters, made the same claim, and made
it frequently with success. He now enjoys
it in absolute freedom from any inter
ference by a civil power which ignores his
existence, and with only just as much re
gard to the wishes of tho clergy as ho may
iind it convenient to piiy. That England,
become a Catholic Stale, would enforce tho
restrictions on tho exercise of Papal power
which other Catholic States find to bo neces
sary is a matter of course. That the national
temper would show itself peculiarly jealous
on this point is equally certain. AVo need
not go beyond tho Catholic body to seo sig
nificant indications of tho fact. It is impos
sible, for instance, to doubt, in spite of tho
simulated contempt of Ultramontane writers,
that Mr. Ffoulkes represents a party among
English Catholics which is influential, if not
through their numbers, at least through their
personal weight. Ami this party exists, it
must be remembered, under circumstances
decidedly adverse. The influences which
make IrishCatholieisi A so passionately Roman
are at work, in a degree, on the English
branch of the communion. Popular dislike,
not seldom inteusilied into active hos
tility, the presence of a dominant
ecclesiastical establishment, the absence
of any large public opinion to which
appeal can be made, these are some among
the causes which, while affected, by tho gene
ral atmosphere of freedom, make Euglish
Catholics turn their thoughts and affections
abroad, and quicken their obedience to a
foreign authority. Let these causes cease to
operate, and it is certain that there would
ensue the rapid growth of an Anglicanism, if
tho word may be so used, which would far
transcend, in energy of self-assertion, tho
Gollicanism of a former age. In other quar
ters, too, so remote as to give special signifi
cance to the fact, similar indications may be
observed. Miss Kaurin and her friends pro
bably have very littlo in common with Mr.
Ffoulkes. It is remarkable, indeed, that '
more than one of the kinsmen who felt thoin
selves aggrieved by her treatment, and
encouraged her to resistance, are members
of tho most Ultramontane of Catholic
institutions, tho Society of Jesus. It has even
been suggested that ono of tho motive causes
of the proceedings was. tho desire to crush a
non-Jesuit prelate. Whether we are to
account for this by this theory, or by tho
more couimon-place suggestion of a sense of
personal injury in the plaintiff and her
friends, matters but very littlo. That such a
cause, involving tho publication of matters
about which Komanists are peculiarly sensi
tive, should ever have been brought, whether
for a party or for a private end, into a secular
court, shows the remarkable influence which
what we may call English surroundings have
on the habits of thought among Catholics.
To the authorities of the Church, and indeed
to all who apprehend tho theory of its relation
to heretical communities, tho proceeding must
have seemed as monstrous as it did to St. Paul
when he found his Corinthian converts ready
to "go to law before tho unbolievors." As
if to complete the ease by another dissimilar
instance, wo lately heard of a lioman Catholic
bishop being threatened by a newspaper con
ducted by persons of his own faith with legal
proceedings that were to avenge the injurious
accusation of Peniauism. This disposition to
appeal to tribunals, whether of law or of pub
lie opinion, would bo immensely increased,
Hhould circumstances remove the motives to
subordination which are so powerful in a
minority. Imagine a high-spirited nation
like tho English, with its even exaggerated
notions of personal rights, brought into eon
tact with tho Koman system such as Ultra
montainism would make it and the Catho
licism of the future will certainly be Ultra
montane; imagine the habit of incessant
appeals against any supposed wrong or neglect
of duty, appeals to Parliament, to tho news
papers, to any accessible public opinion,
general or local; this habit set side by side
with a system of subordinated despotisms, a
Pope absolute over bishops, bishops absolute
over priests, priests absolute over laity. We
know what happens now if a bishop is partial
to a relative, or arbitrary to a curate. 1'arlia.
ment, the press, all England ring with denun
ciations of the favor or the oppression. If
there is even tho shadow of jurisdiction in
the courts of law they are appoalod to, and,
indeed, they are not unwilling to listen. Can
.it b snnnosed that, under uny conceivable
circumstances, John Bull would give up his
habit of putting questions in Parliament, of
writino- to the Time, of publishing a pam
phlet, of flying to his solicitor? If he would
not. can we imatrine a trreater disaster to
liouao thuQ tho gam of fjucU n convert? It
may be said that "conversion" would imply
this charge also. That would be a miracle,
ind( ed, on which wo decline to speculate.
Should it come to pass, we shall probably,
failing ourselves to receive tho grace, watch
it with intense interest from Spain, which
will then bo tho home of free thought.

The Qrlsin mid lllniory of I lie Trouble.
Tho Albany Erenino Journal speaks of the
recent anti-rent troubles in Kcntwclacr county,
. r ., as lollown:

mnded. the Deputy Sheriff and
believed, fatally.
'1 bis outbreak revives interest in a prolonged
and most exciting controversy, which had almost
come to bo regarded a thing of the past tho
resistance of a.numerous tenantry in our own
and adjacent counties to the collection of rental
upon their estates, under the old manorial titles.
In times past this ii-suc has been a tirceder of
physical strifes, of social dissensions, of po
litical enmity. It has been deemed of sufli
eicnt iutcrcr-t and importance to hold the
balance of power betw een parties in the State,
'lime was when the tenants had a secret organi
zation nuiiibciini; thousands of men, who in
the disguise of savages, and adopting a savage
method of warfare, undertook to accomplish by
lorcc their mvoiii purpose of defeating the
claims of landlords. The militia has been called
out to suppress them, and 'the Heidelberg
war." "the (irafton campaign," and other
features of the struggle, will lontr be remem
bered. Wi! have mch an "anti-rent meeting"
in liciissclaer county, at which not less than
lio.UUi persons were present. Of course dema
gogues and place-seekers undertook to profit la
the existence of this widespread and deep-seated
feeling, and the secret history of manoeuvres by
this or that class of wirepullers to secure the
Indian" vote would constitute an interesting
chapter. Hut the strugtrlo was unequal, and
maii- tained at serious cost. Many of the fanners
lost their lands not a few their lives. Some
found their way to prison. The courts uni
formly decided against them. A desire for relief
from tumult and from a sense of insecurity
began to prevail. Larirc numbers of the tenants
compromised their claims, though protesting
against the gross injustice and tyranny of being
compelled to do so. So of late years the "anti
renters" have become less numerous, have aban
doned their armed opposition, and only occa
sional skirmishes between defaulting occupants
and distraining olliccrs have indicated the con
tinued existence of a feud which the shocking
events of yesterday will again bring into promi
nence. flow-ever the public may sym
pathize with the tenantry, in opposition" to the
anti-democratic system of which they are vic
tims, it can feel nothing but reprobation for the
murderous conduct of Wiibcck and his fellow
assassins, (iriggs and his posse were engaged
in the performance of a duty. In seeking to
take possession they were .instilled by well
settled principles of law. The tenants knew
this. They were perfectly well aware that
forcible resistance to the 'process, in any de
gree whatever, was criminal. The only place
in which they could legitimately light
their cause was in the courts. Having delibe
rately organized to shoot down, stab, and beat
the Sheriff and his assistants, they must bo held
accountable lor the full consequences of their
acts. Should either of the wouuded men die,
the crime of which their assailants are guilty
conies under the delinition of murder. It is to
be hoped that they will be promptly arrested.
If the civil authorities arc powerless to take
them, the Governor should order an adequate
militia force to do so. The majesty o the law
must be vindicated. That will be a sad day
when in this State deeds like those committed
by the ribbon societies ami other oath-bound
fraternities of murderers in Ireland go un
punished. Three years ago a bill was presented In the
Legislature providing that the State should buy
up the landlords' claims which could be done
on reasonable terms and thus extinguish tho
titles. It passed the House, but failed in the
Senate for want of time. We believed then, aud
still believe, that this would have been a just
and wise settlement. If we must pay so much
to be rid of a lingering relic of monarehical tyr
anny, let the whole people generously assume
the "burden, and not have it all laid upon tho
shoulders of farmers, most of whom are men of
small means, and have hard work enough to get
subsistence from their lauds, without beinu com
pelled to clear off from them the unpaid and ac
cumulated rental of many years.

DisimtroiiH KxnIoion In New York Five I'cr
noiim Seriously injured.
From the. X. Y. Herald thin morniiu).
Considerable alarm and excitement were occa
sioned in the neighborhood of the City Hall
Park last evening by a terrible accident which
occurred in front ot French's Hotel to a party of
excursionists who were returning from liayonnc,
N. J., where they had been spending the day.
Shortly after 8 P. M. the loungers in front of
French's had their attention attracted by
the demonstration of the jovial occupants of a
large stage, with eight horses attached, which
bowled merrily by. two smaller stages and
three carriages follow ed, all loaded with mem
bers ol tho Jerennau -Murphy Chowder Club.
About tne tune tne rearmost carnage passed
Frankfort street, a rocket was discharged from
a four-horse wagon, containing tho baggage of
the pari, which vehicle was then enteritis:
Printing House Square. Solfcarelessly had the
rocket been directed that in plaeo of going up-
waru it enoi siraigni across tue pal'K, to the In
tense asionisnmeui 01 tne loving couples seated
on the benches. The next moment a second
rocket hissed from the wagon, and carried fire
and confusion into the editorial sanc
tum of ono of our contemporaries. Tho erratic
flights of these tlerv missiles directed the atten
tion of the bystanders to the occupants of the
wagon, some live or six men and three bovs.
bile preparing to light niece No. it. immedi
ately opposite French's Hotel, the man in chartro
handled his matches so carelessly as to explode
me uox ai once, ami drop h among tne urcworks
lying at tho bottom of tho wagon. An attempt
was made to trample out the matches, but tho
next instant bang went a rocket from the
midst of a bundle, and then followed a terrible
explosion w hich hurled some of the men eleau
out 01 tne wagon and scattered ignited rockets,
Koman candles, etc., on all sides. A scene of
terror and confusion followed. The bystanders,
with few exceptions, fled panie-striekeu; tho
passengers in the horse ears took alarm, aud lu
stantly vacating their respective vehicles, ran
wherever instinct directed them. The horses
attached to the wagon dashed off with their tiery
load, but Mr. John Bush, of Chatham street,
risked his life to stop them, and succeeded in
doing so after reeeh ing some rather severe in
juries in tho way of kicks and contusions. The
stages and carriages were some distanco ahead
when the accident occurred, and tho occupants did
not know w hat had happened until they halted
at Sweeny's Hotel.
Attracted by the whizzing of the fireworks
around his office, in the basement of tho City
Hall, Sergeant Kobinson, of tho Twenty-sixth
precinct, rushed out, and on learning the nature
of the accident immediately despatched all avail
able force to the assistance of the pooiifellows
whose heart-rending cries succeeded tho noise
of the explosion.
The interior of the wagon presented a horrible
spectacle to those who first approached. Three
men and two boys, scorched and bloody, their
faces blackened and swollen beyond recogni
tion, and their clothes all aflame, were writhing
and rolling over each other in tho most horrible
agonies. Citizens and police at once set to
work tearing the burning clothes from tho
bodies of tho sufferers, and as soon as that was
done the unfortunate creatures were carried
into tho adjoining hotel, and thence, as soon ai
means of transportation could be procured, tj
Ute Uty Hospital.
Tlic Uri-rU Itrligion.
We quote the following from a new work
by the Kightllon. William Ewart Gladstone,
entitled ".Inventus Mundi, the Gods and
Men of the Heroic Ago," just published in
London:
"During twelve or fourteen hundred years,
it was the religion of tho most thoughtful, the
most fruitful, tho most energetic portions of
the human family. It yielded to Christianity
alone; and to the Chnreh it yielded with re
luctance, summoning up strength in its ex
treme old age, and only giving way after an
intellectual as well as a' civil battle, obstinate
ly fought, and lasting for generations. For
the greater part of a century after the fall of
Constantinople, in tho chief centres of a
Christian civilization in many respects degen
erated, and nn ecclesiastical power too littlo
faithful to its tnist. Greek letters and Greek
thought once again assorted their strength
over the most cultivated minds of Italy, in a
manner which testified to tho force, and to
the magic charm, with which they were itn
perishably endowed. Even within what
may be culled our own time, the Olympian
religion has exercised n fascination alto
gether extraordinary over tho mind of
Gn the, who must bo regarded as standing
in tho first rank? of tho 'great minds
of tho latest centuries. Tho Olympian reli
gion, however, owes perhaps as large a share
of its triumphs to its depraved accommoda
tions us to its excellences. Yet an instru
ment so durable, potent, and elastic must
certainly have had a purpose to servo. Let
us consider for a moment what it may havo
been. Wo have seen how closely, and in how
many ways, it bound humanity and deity to
gether. Ah regarded matter of duty and vir
tue, not to speak of that highest form of vir
tue which is colled holiness, this union was
effected mainly by lowering the divine ele
ment, lint as -regarded all other functions of
our nature, outside the domain of tho life to
God-ward, all those functions which aro
Runimed up in what Saint Paul calls tho flesh
and the mind, the psychic nud tho bodily lifo,
tho tendency of tho system was to exalt tho
human element, by proposing a model of
beauty, strength, and wisdom, in all their
combinations, so elevated, that tho effort to
attain them required a continual upward
strain. It made divinity attainable; and than
it effectually directed tho thought and aim of
man
"Along the line or;ilmitlcss desires. ''
Such a scheme of religion, though failing
grossly in the government of the passions, and
in upholding tho standard of moral duties,
tended powerfully to produco a lofty self
respect, and a large, free, and varied concep
tion of humanity. It incorporated itself in
schemes of notable discipline for mind and
body, indeed, of a life-long education; and
these habits of mind and action had their
marked results (to omit many other great
nesses) in a philosophy, literature, and art
which remain to this day unrivalled or unsur
passed. Tho sacred firo, indeed, that was to
touch the mind and heart of man from above
was in preparation elsewhere. Within tho
shelter of tho hills that stand about Jeru
salem, tho great Archetype of tho spiritual
excellence and purification of man was
to bo produced and matured, But a body,
as it were, was to bo made ready for
this angelic soul. And as when some splendid
edifice is to be reared, its diversified materials
aro brought from this quarter and from that,
according as nature and man favor their pro
duction, so did tho wisdom of God, with slow
but ever sure device, cause to ripe'i, amidst
the several races best adapted for the work,
the several component parts of tho noblo
fabric of a Christian manhood and a Christian
civilization. 'Tho kings of Tharsis and of
tho isles shall give presents: the kings of
Arabia and Saba shall bring gifts.' Every
worker was, with or without his knowledge
and his will, to contrilmto to tho work. And
fimorg them an appropriate part was thus
r.ssigned both to the Greek people and to what
I have termed the Olympian religion."
